Eastern European Food in Wolgok-dong
As fun as it is to check out restaurants in the more popular areas of Gwangju, an activity that has quickly been growing into a favorite of mine has been to explore the lesser known parts of this place I have called home for the better half of a decade. Lucky for me, I have …
The Man Making a Pork Cutlet
The first time I passed by the Man Making a Pork Cutlet, I was on my way to lunch at another establishment near my job, which is located at the Gwangju Biennale. After having only seen the sign and nothing else, I found myself a touch curious, but remained mostly uninterested. It wasn’t until after …
Ranch Dip
I know it doesn’t seem quite right for my second recipe to be yet another dip, but as this one was requested by multiple sources after I brought it to a few parties, I had no choice but to oblige. Honestly though, who doesn’t love consuming obscene amounts of ranch with almost everything? The hardest …
Nasania
Whenever there’s a new restaurant that’s gotten a lot of attention from the cooler people in Gwangju, I always seem to be late to the party.

Tento

Hawaiian Monk
EDIT (12/01/2017): This is a little awkward, but I was informed not even a day after I posted this review that the restaurant has changed their entire menu and basically all of the food that was featured in this post is no longer available. I sincerely apologize for the misleading review! I was recently making …
궁중팥죽
On a chilly evening, I was hanging out with my friends Apple and Bean, a lovely couple who have let me serve as a third wheel for many food adventures. Bean, who had just recently visited the dentist, was hungry and was only able to eat something that didn’t require much chewing. As we tried …
Pico de Gallo
It feels a little wrong to have my first recipe be such an easy one, but what better way to do a test post than with something I’m familiar with? As a native Texan, pico de gallo, also known as salsa fresca, is one of those things I eat fairly regularly. Due to its salad-like …
매월농원
If there’s one protein that I love but never seem to get enough of, it’s duck. I never got to try much of it when I was younger, but since its introduction into my diet, it has quickly climbed its way up as one of my favorite reasons to continue consuming meat. After attempting to …
